48V Villager 6 vs. 48V Transporter 6
Even the official Club Car website doesn't make it very clear what the differences are between these 2 models. Can anybody clue me in?
Thanks TJ |

The guys over on the clubcar section probably could help more with this.

Re: 48V Villager 6 vs. 48V Transporter 6
Well your darn right about that! Sorry. I'm just so used to spending my time in here since I own 2 Drives. I want to get a 6 passenger cart and hence my questions about the Club Car models.
While I've got the attention of the Yamaha forum, has anyone stretched a Drive? I'm thinking that I might just stretch one of my carts rather than try to find a nice CC to buy. It seems like it would be fairly easy to stretch. Are there any surprises lurking? TJ |

Yamaha calls them YDRx_Svs (specialty vehicle short = 1 extra row), and YDRx_Svl (long = 2 extra rows). You could do it yourself, and use as much or little of the pre-made trim/body pieces to make it look nice (they take a standard one off the line and cut/strech frame).

This is very encouraging. Do you know how much longer the YDRx_Svs is than the standard YDRE? If I stretch that length then I could purchase the appropriate stock brake cable.

Re: 48V Villager 6 vs. 48V Transporter 6
My Dad has a late 90s' Club Car Villager-8,its' basically a normal DS with 2 more rows of seats.Everything in front and rear is identical to a standard DS,except for heavier springs and front brakes on the limo.We switched it over to gas and parted out a stock DS for the axle,brackets,shifter,etc..I've never heard of a Transporter,wonder if its' more of a utility-based machine?
